Is the Hammer "legal"? Is it a gimmick?

Re: The Hammer
No, the Air Hammer driver is illegal for USGA and R&A competitions.
It's perfectly fine to use otherwise. -

Re: The Hammer
First is the 'air flow' vents in the head. Violates Appendix 2, section 4a(i): ...Features which are deemed to be in breach... and therefore not permitted include holes in the head.Originally posted by Scragger63 View Post
And the oval shaft violates Appendix 2, section 2b(i,ii): At any point along its length, the shaft must: bend in such a way that the deflection is the same regardless of how the shaft is rotated about its longitudinal axis; and (ii) twist the same amount in both directions.Comment

Re: The Hammer
The product has no credibility to me when the guy selling it claims to be a 6-time world long drive championship. Anyone involved with long drive knows that he's never won the title and on one even knows the guy.

Re: The Hammer
Here's the rogue's gallery of equipment, which promise to fullfil your golf dreams. I had to check, I thought the original Air Hammer had the holes. The new Hammer in the current info commercial is hyping the Zolex material.

What I heard about this guy is he is a natural long hitter, and could do it with any club other than these.Comment
